REDUCE - REUSE - RECYCLE

UGLY THINGS (A SONG)- Teresita Fernandez, Cuba

In an old worn out basinI planted violets for youand down by the riverwith an empty seashellI found you a firefly.In a broken bottleI kept a seashell for youand coiled over that rusty fencethe coral snake floweredjust for you.Cockroach wingcarried to the anthill:that's how I want them to take meto the cemetery when I die.Garbage dump, garbage dumpwhere nobody wants to lookbut if the moon comes outyour tin cans will shine.If you put a bit of loveinto ugly thingsyou'll see that your sadnesswill begin to change color.
